2.Bluetooth logo

Bluetooth was named after a late tenth century king, Harald Bluetooth King of Denmark and Norway. He is known for his unification of previously warring tribes from Denmark (including now Swedish Scania, where the Bluetooth technology was invented), and Norway. Bluetooth likewise was intended to unify different technologies, such as computers and mobile phones.

    The Blutooth is used for enabling cable-free connections between computers, mobile phones, PDAs, printers, etc and the name is derived from Harald I of Denmark who is regarded as having united (if temporarily) Denmark, Norway, and Sweden under a single king.

  6. Piyush Says:

    The picture is of Harald Bluetooth and the logo is of Bluetooth(the protocol). The reason why the protocol was given the name Bluetooth was that like Harald Bluetooth, the protocol too intended to unify various technologies(Harald unified a bunch of tribes..) and that it was invented in the area where Bluetooth lived and ruled.

  7. Sharath Says:

    The first pic is of ‘Harald I of Denmark’ a.k.a Harald Bluetooth Gormson. Andrew Tanenbaum ,in his book- Computer Networks says that the mode of wireless communication was named Bluetooth after Harald Bluetooth who unified Denmark and Norway [without cables :-)]
    The second picture is a logo of Bluetooth Technology.
